| [00:02.72] |
|
| [00:18.42] |
As a younger age, never really gave a shit |
| [00:24.26] |
Just my grandma arms, kept me out of harm |
| [00:27.25] |
Nigga went to class, my football pads |
| [00:29.60] |
Kept the burner stashed, they ain't gon' catch my ass |
| [00:32.74] |
In the Pontiac with the bad speakers |
| [00:35.51] |
Back then? Shit, I was into sneakers |
| [00:38.09] |
And fitted caps, side kicks |
| [00:41.16] |
My same bitch, she a down bitch |
| [00:43.60] |
Had a little daughter, glad it ain't a boy |
| [00:46.33] |
Knew she'd bring me joy, so I named her Joy |
| [00:49.10] |
Kiss her on her head, then I kiss her lips |
| [00:52.09] |
Then I kiss her cheek, lay her down to sleep |
| [00:54.98] |
Trials and tribulations helped me through my situations |
| [00:57.17] |
Little observations stopped the cops from confrontations |
| [01:00.02] |
And the ghetto bird, and a nigga snitched |
| [01:03.11] |
But I'm still dipping, shit, I ain't tripping |
| [01:05.90] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [01:10.39] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [01:12.84] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [01:15.73] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [01:18.61] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [01:21.66] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [01:23.65] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [01:26.74] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [01:27.41] |
I know I'm not perfect |
| [01:28.99] |
But I'll still make a decision |
| [01:32.05] |
That make my life still worth it, yea-ea-eahhh |
| [01:36.10] |
And sometimes it may hurt |
| [01:39.73] |
But I know what you see ain't what it's gon' be, |
| [01:43.47] |
Cause I know my worth, yeeeaaahhhh... |
| [01:47.50] |
Got a lil' older, nigga seen a lot of shit |
| [01:51.64] |
Been out in Boston, even got to see the Knicks |
| [01:54.76] |
I've been to Dallas, slap a five with the bench |
| [01:57.27] |
Back to the hood where niggas betting on the six |
| [02:00.25] |
But shit is crazy |
| [02:01.77] |
Lil' Teisha and Tamika bout to kill they babies |
| [02:04.12] |
Pregnant at the same time, |
| [02:05.76] |
And they think that shit is cute |
| [02:07.10] |
Always running from the truth, |
| [02:08.42] |
Bigger dream they must pursue |
| [02:09.69] |
And they babies wasn't in it |
| [02:11.03] |
Just going bout they business in the club |
| [02:13.33] |
She off of Guinness, adioses with the lemon |
| [02:15.07] |
V.I.P. she dreams of, |
| [02:16.74] |
In the club looking for mean buzz |
| [02:18.84] |
In a dress looking distinctive |
| [02:20.93] |
Ass hanging, |
| [02:22.17] |
Got that ass hanging with the biggest baller in the club |
| [02:25.13] |
Ain't got a dub, |
| [02:26.17] |
But she want some love |
| [02:27.17] |
Wasn't polite, but she feel it's right (feel it's right) |
| [02:29.72] |
Lay it down, then he dimmed the lights, |
| [02:31.21] |
Played it right for the night |
| [02:32.77] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [02:37.55] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [02:39.62] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [02:42.70] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [02:45.97] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [02:49.11] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [02:51.37] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [02:53.82] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [02:54.53] |
I know I'm not perfect |
| [02:55.66] |
But I'll still make a decision |
| [02:58.98] |
That make my life still worth it, yea-ea-eahhh |
| [03:03.58] |
And sometimes it may hurt |
| [03:06.93] |
But I know what you see ain't what it's gon' be, |
| [03:10.16] |
Cause I know my worth, yeeeaaahhhh... |
| [03:14.41] |
Uh, ignorance is bliss, but to know is pain |
| [03:18.64] |
No matter what we reap, we still sow the same |
| [03:21.33] |
The concept of change is second-rate to change |
| [03:24.24] |
Either way around, the cycle still remains |
| [03:26.48] |
Out my project window, |
| [03:27.88] |
Observing the wannabes blowing endo |
| [03:30.37] |
Shooting dice on the corner, |
| [03:31.64] |
Big homie roll up with his kinfolk |
| [03:34.04] |
Unfold a stack on 'em like, |
| [03:35.59] |
What they hitting for? |
| [03:36.74] |
Slamming the doors on his Benzo |
| [03:37.88] |
He left the engine running, |
| [03:39.67] |
Bumping something sounding like |
| [03:40.80] |
Late eighties R&B, trunk full of China white |
| [03:43.34] |
Type of nigga ladies like, known dope dealer |
| [03:45.88] |
Money, cash, hoes getter, slash stone cold killer |
| [03:48.82] |
He can't sleep at night, |
| [03:50.27] |
His victim's eyes piercing through his soul |
| [03:52.07] |
He wake up every time his eyes close |
| [03:53.83] |
That's who them young boys aspire to see |
| [03:56.63] |
Underneath the palm trees, |
| [03:58.22] |
That's who they dying to be |
| [03:59.37] |
But I'm good |
| [04:02.79] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [04:04.87] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [04:07.61] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [04:10.43] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [04:13.12] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [04:15.71] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [04:18.50] |
I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, |
| [04:21.34] |
I'm good, I'm good... |
| [04:25.92] |
I know I'm not perfect |
| [04:29.41] |
But I'll still make a decision |
| [04:31.86] |
That make my life still worth it, yea-ea-eahhh |
| [04:36.90] |
And sometimes it may hurt |
| [04:39.65] |
But I know what you see ain't what it's gon' be, |
| [04:43.21] |
Cause I know my worth, yeeeaaahhhh... |
| [04:47.46] |
